Is anyone playing this one? It looks kind of cool. I was just wondering how it was.

No story but other than that I had a blast with it. If you like loot collecting this is the game for you.

Is the combat fun? I'm not usually the biggest shooter fan, but this looks like a lot more fun than the usual super serious type.

I got it for Christmas. Fun game, but playing as Mordecai is quite frustrating. His defense is lousy, and his primary weapons are the revolver and sniper rifle, weapons that can be hard to shoot guys with due to their massive recoil.

I really enjoyed it. Well worth the $ imo.



Tip: Use Brick. ;)

Cool character, terrible choice. I played as him too and wished I hadn't. Mainly because you can't be a sniper in the game. Fire one bullet and EVERYONE charges your position no matter where you are.

Wouldn't that work better for multiplayer? When they charge, there's the big guy to mow em down.

Anyway, I planned on playing as either the girl or the middle sized guy if I got it.

I played as Mordecai, the sniper, because that is the type of weapon I like to use in FPS game. I had a good time with the game. This isn't a game that you play for the story, but be sure to do all of the quests to get the most for your money, and also because some of them are funny.

I preferred Roland. The turret is a lifesaver if you are playing solo. It's like having another soldier on the field. :lol:

Yeah, I'm kinda regretting it, but a lot of his skills do not require sniper rifles, so I have been able to get by without them.

That mission where I had to kill Mad Mel was freaking lame. The shitty vehicle controls made it impossible to drive by and shoot him without getting hurt myself. After dying 3 times and losing 30K, I ended up sniping him right outside the arena where he couldn't touch me.

Then after that I had a retarded mission where I had to kill the Mothrakk. Its extremely difficult to shoot, and the damn thing has to be killed in a certain amount of time, or it runs away and recovers all its health.

I don't even know if I want to play it anymore after that.

Mothrakk is the hardest boss in the game. Everything is a cake walk compared to him. :lol:

Starting to be glad that I didn't get this joint. My boy wants me to get it, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the other games on my priority list will be more rewarding for me. 8)
